Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup butter (1/2 stick)
1 small onion, chopped
1 cup red pepper, diced (or green, yellow or orange)
1 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (or more if you want really spicy)
1/4 cup flour
1 cup canned chicken broth
1 cup whole milk ( do not use low-fat or non-fat)
1 (16 oz) can whole kernel corn, drained and reserve liquid
1 (16 oz) can cream-style corn
frozen corn
1 cup cilantro, chopped medium ( add more to taste)

Directions:

Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium heat.
Add onion, peppers, cumin and cayenne and saute until vegetables are tender, about 8 minutes.
Add flour and stir for 1 minute.
Gradually mix in broth , milk and reserve corn liquid. Bring mixture to a boil, whisking until smooth.
Mix in canned corn and creamed corn and stir. I always add another cup or so of frozen corn (because I always have frozen corn to use up).
Heat soup until all of corn is heated through. Add cilantro and stir.
Ladle into bowls and garnish with sour cream.
